When cholera was raging In Corea
last summer Il was supposed 10 have
been arrested BY the successful efforts
Of the people IN firing gums at the chol.
era gods Tor dcvill. The disease did
stop lis rayages very suddenly. and Il
the masses had faith enough In their
methad 81 treating Il 10 carry Il out
faithfully Il Is but natural 20 suppose
that thay would ascribe the successful
results 20 their vigorous Treatment. Re-
Gently three soldiers doing duty At the
palace lost their hair In mysterious
way, and as the same experience has
since fallen 60 others Il has caused great
CONSERVATION. The hair l. worn Ia a
little knot on top Of the head. This
knot Is q sign Of manhood. as all boys
and unmarried men wear their hair In
= braid down their backs. Il Is first
put up when the young man Il betroth-
ed. aud Is ever afterward tended with
great care. To lose this coil Is a sad
affiiction, but the unaecountable man.
ner in which men are now losing their
hair becomes cause Of national anxi-
ETY. and shame rs well as distress TO
the individual. As the occurrence Is
still taking place and no visible cause
can be discovered, it has been ascribed
70 an evil spirit Consequently the ar
tillery Is again called into requisition
and the music Of the Calling gun Is
enough to lead one 10 suppose the city
10 be in state Of siege. This may
seem TO be tFiiiing matter, yet great
eriseses have arisen fr0m no greater
causes. Should. for instance, this oc-
currenee be ascribed to the disgust of
the gods with their people (Coreans)
for assOciating with short-haired for
eigners, the intelligent. broad-minded
King and progressive party would have
trouble in restraining the masses from
doing violence TO the people whom
they believed to be bringing disgrace
with their presence In the country.

The distinguished Episcopal Preachers Three
Mission Services Yesterday.

A. NJ. in which he preached at Christ Church
from Ephesians, vi, 13
The first Of the MONDAY services in the Grim
inal Court room was held yesterday. but was
not largely attended, not more than sixty per-
sons being present. Among these were quite a
number OF clergymen. DR.. Bradley, of Christ
Church, led The singing and played the organ,
being assisted by cornet. Dr. Courtnev's dis
course was upon the 139sh Psalm, the subject
being Gods allseeing providence. Neither the
Doctors manner nor methods are in line with
those OF any of the evangelists who have preached
here. represents his arguments in clear and plain
language his illustrations being simple and ia
mlliar, He was listened to with the closest at
tention, and his discourse evidently made desp
impression upon his hearers. He urged ali to
find out about themselves, and when, by self
examination, they had found out their short
eomings. to confess them to God, vino alone could
afford them peace and salvation. He said that
to be humble believing son of the Almighty
was more distinguished honor than to be Gov
ernor OF Indiana, President Of the United States
or the greatest autocrat on earth. He desired to
impress upon those who heard him realization
OF Gods greatness and His love, compromising
which they could work out their own salvation.
In the afternoon. at o'clock, he held service
at Christ Church, in which he spoke directly to
the communicates. There were about nun
dred persons at the church, nearly all ladies,
few men being present. He read. as Scripture
lessons, parts of the sixteenth chaper of Exodus
and the twenty second chapter of Acts. Self
investigation was the burden of his discourse.
He made 1t plain that communicates should
know what their besetting sins were and then
forsake them. He dwelt upon the necessity of a
contemplation of Christ personal reality,
and that whatever they Jesus Christ to he
appropriate it.
Dr. Courtney gave another service at Christ
Church in the evening, which was well attended.
The noon meetings at the Criminal Court, for
men only, will continue.

BYNUM COMES TO SEE TURPIE.
The Congressman Trying to Get His Friend
Beck Appointed 9. s. District Attorney.

Congressman Bynum's presence in the city
yesterday was known to but few, and it is posi-
BILE that if Senator Bailey had not come during
the afternoon to visit the Office where the Con-
gresham was closeted with the gentleman the
Senator wanted to see, some Democrats would
not have been disturbed in their political cacu-
lations. The Senator was moved to visit Judge
Turpie at his Office in the government building.
Senator Bailey, hat and cane. were half way up
to the third floor when he inquired of the ele-
water boy: It's Judge Turpie in his Officer
YES" was the reply. He and Congressman
Bynum together. The Congressman went
up about fifteen minutes ago"
What! What" exclaimed the startled Bailey.
"Let met out of this. don't want to see Judge
Turpe today and as the Senator reached the
top floor he forgot, in his excitement, to make
return trip in the elevator. He walked down
stairs Last night he and his friends were doing
all they could to alay the impression that BY
mum could effect anything with Judge Turpie.
The latter will probably retire from the district
attorneys Office the last of the menth and leave
vacancy that half dozen State
Senators, including E. B. Sellers and A. g.
Smith, want to fill. But" said a Democrat
to whom the secrets of his party are intrusted,

He is no more the friend of Senator Sellers in
this respect than of Green Smith. who could
have had the office for the asking. He does not
want it. Green is being groomed, or rather is
grooming himself, for Governor two years hence.
Bynum can't do anything with Turpie. He
wants to arrange with the latter to get his in
dorsement for Albert Beck for the district attor-
neyship. That was the purpose of his visit He
might have held out the promise of combinations
in sharing the patronage of the State. There is

A Boston Street Railway Tied Up.


Boston, Feb. THE employees of the South
Boston horse railroad, ut meeting which
lasted until o'clock this morning, voted unani-
mously to tie up the road to-day, and in pur-
suance Of this vote cars were taken out this
morning. This is one of the largest horse rail
roads in the city The men are opposed to the
present superintendent aud want ten hours
work instead of a twelve-hou day. The diff
Guilty seems to be chiefly in making out time
tables. The company claims that'it is impossible
10 arrange them so as TO give ten hours inside of
twelve and proper time for meals. The track
LAYERS and carrepairers have Joined the strikers.
There has been no trouble yet, the strikers
behaving in a very orderly manner. NO cars
had been taken out up to noon.
After the determination to tie up the road had
been reached at last nights meeting, committees
were appointed to patrol the streets and notify
all patrons of the road that there were no cars
running and to watch the stables and inform all
of tbs employees who appeared to GO to work. of
the tie-up. Every man who voted to tie up also
took the pledge to abstain from all Intoxicating
liquors while the tie-up might last The SYM
pathy of the general public who travel over the
road very much encouraged the men. A detach-
nent of police was sent to the stables to protect
the property of the road and any men who might
undertake to run out car. Their services were
not needed Not q nonunion man appeared ut
hther stable TO take out a car.
The line remained tied M all day no attempt
TO run cars being made. The directors OF the
company this afternoon decided to advertise for

The Indianapolis journal. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1867-1904, 1887-02-08
They expressed themselves as determined to
fight the matter to the last. An attempt will
probably be made to run cars tomorrow.


PrTTsBURG, Feb. THE executive board of
the Miners National Assembly, Knights of La
Dor, which has been investigating the recent de-
mand made by the river miners for an advance
in the price of mining. arrived at decision to-
night The board decides that the rate for the
fourth pool should be % cents per bushel, and
in the other three pools % cents. This is an ad-
vance of cent in the fourth pool and cent in
the first, second and third pools The award is
not satisfactory to either the miners or their
employers, and a continuation of the strike is
probable.
